Summary
AWAWT 120: Let’s Watch SNL’s Tori: Absolutely Christmas!
Our discussion of the ongoing Tori Spelling send-up from Saturday Night Live is twice as long as the pleasingly concise skit, which we give pretty high marks. Is Melanie Hutsell's Tennessee-flavored Tori a success? Is there STUFF? Listen and see what we thought!
AWAWT 125: Let's Watch Tori Spelling In A Carol Christmas!
Carol Cartman is a truly heinous bitch of a daytime talk show host, but can visits from three Christmas ghosts show her the error of her ways? ...Yes, yes they can.
